I'm betting the compliance rate mimics that of ar registrations and "hi-cap" mag turn ins, from other states.
Oh, and I'm relieved that criminals don't need to pay the fee or have insurance.

So..... are the criminals found with guns going to get charged with failure to carry insurance?

So they want to tax a Constitutional right, which will get overturned by the courts. But curious what insurance companies have such coverage available?
Stephen Gutowski had a great quick reaction on a twitter thread on it last night. If you can't read the whole thread, here's his quote comparing this to First Amendment restrictions:
It's akin to requiring anybody writing an op-ed or letter to the editor to obtain libel insurance as a way of combating "misinformation" or what have you.

I'll buy insurance to carry a gun when Brian Stelter and Chris Cuomo and Rachel Maddow and the NY Times are required to buy insurance to publish their opinions.
I believe this qualifies as "Infringed".
Come and Take it.

Good question, since "regular people" won't comply, and criminals won't bother,
the real effect/consequence will probably be a LEO
Law Enforcement Officer Expense/Tax...because, the LEOs all have guns right?
i like the require them to get
1st Amendment insurance ideas above.
